Uzbek cast iron kazan 16 L with lid<\/strong> is a traditional cooking vessel handmade by craftsmen in Uzbekistan. It is suitable for use both at home and outdoors. This Uzbek cast iron kazan<\/strong> is made from 100% cast iron<\/strong> and features thick walls, a solid construction and an aluminium lid included in the set.<\/p>\n

Cast iron heats gradually, distributes heat evenly throughout the vessel and retains temperature for a long time. This allows food to cook evenly and remain hot even after the heat has been reduced. Uzbek cast iron kazan 16 L with lid<\/strong> is especially suitable for preparing pilaf, but it can also be used for soups, stews, meat, vegetables, sauces, goulash, roasts and compotes.<\/p>\n

This model has a flat outer base with a raised platform<\/strong>, allowing the kazan to stand securely on a suitable flat cooking surface. The inside retains the traditional spherical shape<\/strong>, which helps distribute heat evenly across the bottom and walls.<\/p>\n

The inner surface is fully polished<\/strong>, making it smoother and easier to use and maintain. The kazan has already been factory pre-seasoned<\/strong> and prepared for use. There is no technical grease or industrial oil inside.<\/p>\n

A complete re-seasoning process is not required before first use. It is only recommended to heat a small amount of vegetable oil to remove any possible production dust and prepare the surface for the first cooking session.<\/p>\n

Uzbek cast iron kazan 16 L with lid<\/strong> is suitable for approximately 10\u201314 people<\/strong>. Depending on the dish and portion size, it can prepare approximately 15\u201320 portions<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The kazan can be used both with and without the lid<\/strong>. It is a versatile cooking vessel for everyday cooking, outdoor recreation, picnics, camping and cooking over an open fire.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

    Care and storage<\/h3>\n
    \n
    \n
    Proper care<\/span><\/div>\n
    \n
      \n
    • Allow the kazan to cool gradually<\/li>\n
    • Wash with warm water<\/li>\n
    • Use a soft sponge or brush<\/li>\n
    • Dry completely immediately after washing<\/li>\n
    • Apply a very thin layer of vegetable oil<\/li>\n
    • Store in a dry place<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
      \n
      What not to do<\/span><\/div>\n
      \n
        \n
      • Do not use dishwashing detergent<\/li>\n
      • Do not wash in a dishwasher<\/li>\n
      • Do not leave the kazan wet<\/li>\n
      • Do not store cooked food in the kazan<\/li>\n
      • Do not pour cold water into a hot kazan<\/li>\n

        \n

        What should be done if rust appears?<\/h3>\n
        \n
        Restoring the protective layer<\/span><\/div>\n
        \n

        Small rust spots do not mean that the kazan is damaged. Cast iron may begin to rust if it remains in a damp environment for a long time or is not completely dried after washing.<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Remove the rust with a firm sponge, brush or fine abrasive material.<\/li>\n
        2. Rinse the kazan with warm water.<\/li>\n
        3. Dry completely.<\/li>\n
        4. Apply a thin layer of vegetable oil.<\/li>\n
        5. Heat the kazan slightly to restore the protective layer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
